Hadith, after the Holy Qur'an, is considered as the second basic source for discovering and explaining divine knowledge. The most important challenge of the hadith is the issue of differences between the narrations and the method of dealing with them correctly and correcting them. Therefore, in this article, a comparative study of the method of the earlier Muhaddithin in resolving the conflict of news using the method of documentary analysis has been achieved and the following results have been achieved: Sheikh Kulayni (RA) has used his choice to express the following contradictory hadiths; Sheikh Saduq (RA) in addition to the above two methods, has also used the plural method, so he can be considered the first early Shiite comprehensive writer, who has combined the conflicting narrations, expressed the evidence of his aggregation in some of them. Sheikh Tusi (RA) also based his work on providing logical reasons to resolve the differences between the hadiths, and made resolving the conflict of news legal and methodical; and became the founder of a comprehensive and scientific structure to solve the above problem at that time, as well as teaching the method of dealing with this issue and similar topics for the future.
